i also don't mind re-doing it again as i enjoy playing the game. I mean why else would you play it?.....

.....I don't want to put words into your mouth so i will use your own instead. "I can only assume these people are extremely masochistic to want to re-level and acquire zenni all over again" this says to me that you don't enjoy playing the game? i absolutely love taking down mobs while the zeni and loot as well as levels come doing just that. I mean why complain about what is pretty much the only thing you do to do or get anything (taking down mobs) when you should play games for fun, not to torture yourself?.....

.....I feel like i'm writing too much so i will stop here. but i would like you to know that i both respect and understand why you dislike the idea of a wipe but at the same time we all agreed to it and knew it was going to happen if we bothered to read the rules and code of conduct.....

First off, I appreciate you taking the time out to write thought out responses to my posts. No reason to feel like you're "writing to much" as respectful and level-headed discourse is always a good thing.

In regard to your reasoning for enjoying the game, however, I must disagree. Any game that is "grind heavy" like DBO, Tera online, just mmos in general I'd say this applies to. These games are enjoyable because you put the time and effort into getting something in the game, and later are rewarded. The grind itself is usually EXTREMELY unenjoyable. With DBO, the beautiful maps and wonderful music make it tolerable. What I enjoy most in DBO is end level PVP, flying around exploring maps, sitting around chilling with ppl, and just in general re-living the nostalgia from a few years ago. While grinding CAN occasionally be relaxing, it can also be mind numbingly boring and downright painful. Right now I need to grind until lvl 59 because all the lvl 58 quests in Dark Namek are broken. I have dropped some u58 stones which is great for selling and such, but the process is just excrutiating to me.

Again, maybe some people like yourself find grinding and farming to be enjoyable, but for me and others like me, we find the monotony very unbearable....and thinking of needing to do it all over again is like a nightmare! e.e

Come on dude you are lvl 58 and you complain about the wipe are you kidding me ? I have 3 character lvl 70 and 1 buffer lvl54 I want a wipe because this game is a joke with the people abusing from bugg

I just started playing only a month ago. I am sure you have played much longer. I was waiting til I got a "somewhat" capable laptop, as my old one was dying on me. One month for lvl 58 and 100 kk in dogis/ dogi items isn't bad for someone without master class who hasn't abused any bugs to get where they are :O Hell I don't even use real money to buy things off of cash shop (I find ppl in the game willing to sell me cash points and I haggle with them to get the best price possible)

@Cosmo, my point isn't whether or not people knew beforehand about the wipe, or how much shit Daneos has to deal with concerning whiners and the like. My point is WHY erase all the data if it CAN be kept? What reason is there? Evening the playing field is a stupid reason. Like I said before, if ppl find buggers upgrading gear so detestable, just have Daneos wipe all the "+"s off of the gear. Why just forfeit months work of work lvling up characters and getting zenni and so on and so forth? I can only assume these people are extremely masochistic to want to re-level and acquire zenni all over again...

I'm already at lvl 58. And as a character with NO master class, who hasn't abused any bugs for lvling, it is a HUGE undertaking just to get where I am now. Not to mention all the haggling, buying and re-selling of dogis and dogi accessories I had to do in order to accumulate a respectable amount of zenni.

Why put all the time and effort into this? Certainly NOT for other people. I have encountered many broken quests and game glitches all over the place that make lvling even harder. But I don't go and report it on the forum. Why? Because i'm playing this game FOR ME, not for anyone else. After waiting 3 long years, FINALLY having the opportunity to play a game that had a huge, positive influence on my life again is a chance I can't just merely give up. I truly do believe that the project may never move into proper Open Beta, as I detailed in my Kid Clocks Ahoy thread. I was originally planning on waiting til the game moved out of pre-open to invest any time into it, but as things are #1 I have a lot of free time on my hands NOW, and it is likely that I won't in the future due to Uni work in January, and #2 I don't want to pass up my chance of playing DBO again if there is the slightest possibility of the game getting C&D'd

Personally, I don't understand the mental process of someone who would actually WANT all their hard work deleted if given the option.

It's like asking a friend to come over to your house and steal your memory card, like wtf? I could understand if there is no possible way for Daneos to move out of Pre Open without the wipe, but IF he could keep characters as is, I see no reason to do something like this. Anyone who disagrees either has an ulterior motive, or is just plain retarded.

And, fyi, I'm SURE Daneos is more than capable of removing the "+"s off of gear or whatever, just to mollify the lot of you whiners who cry "bugger!" in trade chat whenever someone gets +15.

Idk, all I know is that there's no way it could be better than Kraken (me and Buffero liked to sing to the adorable, pink octopus as we farmed jewelry ^^)

Kid Clock will be available after the next cash shop update.

When is the next cash shop update?

Quote from EchoSon

It'd be GREAT for us, but wouldn't benefit him in any way(other than making a quick buck in this case), and possibly distract him from what he's trying to work on currently. Multi-tasking is bad for workflow, after all.

All he needs to do is add it to cash shop. The work is already done according to GokUsama :O

It would take maybe a few minutes out of his time to put it in so we could buy, is that really such a distraction to his work?

You need to upgrade your pants /)^3^(\

What you're still failing to realize is DBOG and DBOR are official dragon ball servers. Cinitrate, one of the staff at DBO even stated himself that this is an official public (private) server. There's no reason for big named companies to take action, nor is there a purpose for us to be shut down. You are clearly a person who thinks negatively about things if you're acting like this and want things your way, but guess what, not everything can do whatever the people want's way. Just live with what you got and wait patiently for Clocks to be added.

I am not even talking about Kid Clocks at the moment. I am addressing the people who posted above in response to my comment detailing the potential shut down of the DBOG servers. They seemed to think I was merely fabricating things to try and push for the implementation of clocks. I am defending my claims in that post, rather than purely speaking about it for the sake of the kid clocks.

The danger is there and Daneos knows it. I can only assume you do as well. With all due respect, why try to pretend that it does not exist?

Quote from Clyde

I won't bother to argue with you here, but you clearly need to rethink what you're saying. There's a lot of flaws you pointed out, and fail to understand that making a DBOG server is no easy work and requires a ton of dedication and work. Anyways, whatever that game is must of done something to get themselves closed.

Creating the artwork and assets as well as the fighting mechanics of a 2 dimensional fighting game like Fighting is Magic takes a hella a lot of work as well. It doesn't stop the bigwigs at the respective corporations from shutting down projects. And this is not an isolated instance either. Take a look into the Pokémon uranium project which was shut down by Nintendo after 10+ YEARS of development. How about the Super Mario 64 remake that was released as an Open beta project for PC? Shut down as well. Just scour YouTube and you'll fins tons of games that have been shut down for similar reasons

^Just one example of such, as it is one of the most recent cases

Quote from Clyde

This thread will be locked. The final statement is: Kid Clocks won't be added till a later date. If you have a problem with that then don't play and move on. Other people want to play because they enjoyed the game and wanna continue to experience the fun of the game and relive their memories. Not everyone will get what they want, but be glad with what you got. Also, DBOG is in a sense "certified" to continue running and while yes the original creators do have power of the game, DBOG is in no way infringing the digital millennium copyright act, so no action can really be taken. Also, Daneos does make profit for the game, BUT he can only use it for the sole purpose of benefiting the DBOG network, nothing more, nothing less.

Case closed.

That is what the developers of Fighting is Magic thought too. Hell, they didn't even make any money off that game; did it all for free. And they still got shut down.

Unfortunately, with the way the screwed up legal systems work, it IS entirely possible and likely that NTL, Netmarble, or whoever is in charge of the property will shut this project down. Hell, they could even press legal charges against Daneos. I'm not saying this to encourage such actions, but to merely warn the players of DBOG. This IS a very real possibility and Daneos has no say in the matter whatsoever.

Quote from Clyde

The thing is we have more important things to deal with. Kid Clocks are on the list of things being made, but that'll likely not release until open beta which is a few months from now. If you wish to remain a kid then do not do the master class quest/adult quest and wait it out. Let Daneos settle with more important matters first before attempting to even get it done.

I get the feeling game will not even make it to Open Beta. Daneos is playing a very risky game considering he is using a game that is not his to make profit off of. It is very possible Netmarble or whoever is in charge of the DragonBall Online liscense will shut down this project before Daneos can move DBOG into Open Beta.

If you want a prime example of this, just go look into the fiasco of the "Fighting is Magic" project started by Mane6 over 3 years ago. Hasbro waited until the very end (when they were JUST about finished) and shut that b/itch down with a Cease & Desist.

Since Daneos does not hold legal domain over the property nor the development studio of NTL, he has no rights when it comes to creating a private server, let alone making money off of it.

I say we get Kid Clocks implemented NOW so that the game doesn't shut down before we have a chance to use them. It should take Daneos maybe a day or two tops to finish coding and patching it to the server. Since it can be used as a Cash Shop item, he is free to charge as much as he wants for it, and people will still buy the thing. He has already dug a hole for himself legally by using a liscensed property that he doesn't own as well as making money off of it, so there's no reason to be hesitant to releasing another Cash Shop item.

The point is that Kid Clocks would take almost no effort on his part and probably make him a lot of money on Cash Shop. =_=

Adding SSJ means he has to calculate gameplay mechanics relative to the buff such as dmg output, attack speed, movement speed, EP reduction, EP regeneration, etc. Not only would he need to bother with all of that, but he also needs to implement the Dragon Ball hunt system to get that to happen. Adding special craft dogis would mean he'd need to update the craft system add new recipes, materials, etc.

Adding functioning Kid Clocks to the game would be so much simpler than any of these other requests, as it doesn't effect gameplay and is only a cosmetic change (since this is a point-and-click mmo, he does not have to worry about such things as hitbox calculations etc.)

We have seen the utter devastation Daneos's last attempt at implementing a key feature into the game resulted in with a span of nearly a week of almost unplayable DBO due to server crashes etc. Implementing UD's and such is clearly quite a difficult feat. Kid clocks are easy-peasy, lemon squeezy :O

Daneos, please put Kid Clocks into Cash Shop before adding any new content to the game!

It can't be very difficult, can it? It would be a million times easier than all the other stuff people on the forum are asking for. I don't even care if you overprice the Kid Clocks like you did with the Green Skill Reset book, just PLEASE give of the option to keep our characters adorable while having master class!

Me and many other like-minded individuals I have talked to in game have all expressed extreme dissatisfaction with the complete and utter lack of Kid Clocks in Cash Shop. So I IMPLORE you Daneos-sama, please implement these items post-haste! I simply cannot wait anymore (I am a level 47 wonder majin because I did not even consider the possibility of doing the adult and subsequently master class quest without a Kid Clock to fall back on immediately after.

Get on it Daneos! I promise I won't call you mean things in Trade chat anymore if you do~
